Imitation Research Proposals Samples For Students

Introduction

Banded mongooses are small carnivorous animals which live in male-dominated groups of between 5-40 individuals. The 2 kg animal is of a great interest for scientific research because of their peculiar lifestyle in which they use the concept of social learning to pass their foraging traditions from one generation to another. As carnivorous animals, they feed on a variety of preys which require the use of extractive foraging techniques. Here, the pups which are entirely dependent on the adults are introduced into the foraging techniques as they grow up. In this situation, the young non-breeding male adults (escorts) spend their time ...

Abstract

In this paper I will describe a proposed experimental design on the topic of character building in children under five. Research has shown that children are affected by their experiences early in life. However, much of the research available does not deal with children under the age of five. The experiment proposed in this paper will endeavor to position itself in this research gap. The specific research question of this investigation is: how do children learn values such as care, sharing, and empathy through imitation of parents? My three main research objects are to: 1) examine the available research; ...

Introduction

Molokai Island is the fifth largest of the Hawaiian Islands. The island was built between two distinct shield volcanoes, with one forming the larger eastern Molokai and the lesser forming the western Molokai (Bardolet and Pauline, 905). The island is located in the Maui County and through its geography and culture it is perfect for tourism. Tourism is one of the economic boosters of the Maui County, and part of the tourism revenues of Maui County is from the Island of Molokai though in a larger proportion.

Molokai has an average of 1000 visitors per day in the name of ...

Albert Bandura first proposed observational learning theory in 1986 as the basic form of learning whereby learning occurs through imitation or observation of the behavior of others. Observational learning has been stressed by other scholars on its importance because the society especially the young generation gets to learn and acquire new responses by observing the behavior of others. Unlike the traditional learning theories, observational learning does not require reinforcement or punishment to ensure learning takes place. Instead, the learner requires a social model, who can be a teacher, a parent or someone in authority engaging in a manner that the learner desires ...
